    Re: problem with RAID 1 booting

    You have failed to state what type of raid - ie software raid or fakeraid. Each can have their own problems.

    My own experience of the boot dropping to an initramfs prompt was when the dmraid...

    [ubuntu] Re: 12.04 How Do You Mount a RAID 5 Partition?

    You are right, the raid 5 partition would not likely survive the MB swap. The 12.04 should see the raid 5? Try querying it from a live cd terminal with the command - sudo dmraid -ay. The response...

    [ubuntu] Re: Live CD does not recognize IDE harddisk

    dyno:


    This is probably your problem. Once written to a disk by the MB raid bios the raid designation persistently remains in as metadata on the drive until explicitly erased. To erase it, boot...

    [ubuntu] Re: Ubuntu 12:10 fstab question

    the /dev/dm-0 is generally your first raid array - it wouldn't have a file structure - so the statement is correct. But why is the system trying to mount it?

    What is the output of 'sudo blkid'....

  7. [ubuntu] Re: During an installation typed sudo dmraid -E -r /dev/sda, now windows 8 cannot sta

    The way a raid0 works is by having a raid bios on the MB use two disks as one by writing alternate sectors on each of the drive. This speeds up data reads and writes but distributed data between the...

    You may get a better answer from the Servers forum. Although unfamiliar with the specific hardware, it appears to emulate a Windows 'fakeRAID' protocol. If the case the raid...

  11. [ubuntu] Re: Lenovo 310 - question about the SSD cache

    There are other issues, but, the primary one is that if you want to 'un-raid' the drives you have to erase the raid meta data on them. Otherwise they continue to be seen as raid. I would wait for...

    [ubuntu] Re: Hardware RAID1 data volume and Ubuntu

    Congratulations. It is not necessary to run a dmraid command on boot since the raid is made active with the boot.

    Try installing dmraid. Its installation should permit the raid partitions to be seen and be mountable. The dmraid program is not installed by default by Ubuntu if Ubuntu is installed to any partition...

    [ubuntu] Re: Hardware RAID1 data volume and Ubuntu

    Lots of luck. I did get 12.10 working on a raid0 - in a round-about way. The 12.10 release note allude to problems with raid installations in that an alternate cd installation is not available! I did...

    Re: Installation Issues

    So far, so good! Everything look intact.

    Here is where it gets tacky. With my system, in my attempts to install 12.10, the install process died at a point that I didn't have an operable system. We...

    I can't tell from your narrative what you have left after trying your install.

    Just to put things in perspective, you have what the Linux community calls a fakeRAID. It is a software raid setup...

    A true fakeRAID array is usually accessed in a Linux system with dmraid rather than a driver per se. If dmraid is not already installed you can install it and in a terminal enter the command:

    [ubuntu] Re: restore fake raid from dmraid.sil

    It is. Just remember that the metadata is persistent and must be erased to completely clear the raid. That would be done prior to uninstalling dmraid.

    You should be able to at least get the raid activated after boot by typing -
